BKWine Pick: Champagne Philippe Gamet, Mardeuil

A family property that is run by the husband-wife couple Fabienne and Philippe Gamet. They have 8.6 hectares of vines around Epernay. Brut Séléction can be had for 12.50€ at the winery. It is made from pinot meunier and pinot noir. They only use the cuvee (the first pressing) for the wine. It is mouth filling with lots of flavours, aromas of citrus and apple and with a youthful style. Very good value. Cuvée 5000 has had a bit more aging before being recorked (dégorgement) and has a classic style of toast and flowers. Millésimé 2004 has very good concentration and body with aromas of grapefruit and an excellent acidity.
